What about this scenario:-

Boeing AD stipulates 1000lbs of fuel to be carried in CWT to avoid leaving Fuel pumps uncovered.

Would you as crew pass me (load controller) the following figures for a Loadsheet:

Ramp Fuel with the 1000lbs of fuel for the CWT included in this figure

or

Ramp Fuel plus the 1000lbs of fuel for the CWT to be included on the loadsheet as a Service Weight Adjustment.

I have not used option 2 before(most holiday flights take full wings + some CWT fuel), but I have seen some Big Airways 757 Load Messages that have used option 2.
